Nonfiction Picture Book Challenge: A Sneak Peak at 2020

Sometimes the best packages that arrive come without fancy packaging and bows. Recently, I received a few of those boxes. Upon opening them, I found the best kind of present. Advanced copies or F & G’s (folded & gathered) of nonfiction picture books that will be out in 2020. Since not all of these books are on GoodReads yet, I have linked to IndieBound. Have fun creating a list of books to discover in 2020. It’s going to be a great year for nonfiction.
